thanksgiving feasts! (kindergarten and preschool)

Naomi had a Thanksgiving “feast” at preschool; there was white bread, green beans, sliced cheese, turkey lunchmeat, and applesauce.  Pretty funny, but the kids loved it.  Naomi even asked for more green beans!  She made a pilgrim hat, and looked adorable in it.  Some of the teachers put on a puppet show about the pilgrims, and the kids thought it was a riot; they laughed the whole way through.

Chris also got to have a “feast” in kindergarten, but they asked the parents not to come for that.  They had three classes in one room, and I guess there wasn’t space for any more people.  It was one where everyone brought something to share.  He said he had a lot of fun.

halloween 2010

Friday, the 29^th, our ward had a trunk-or-treat party.  They went a little crazy, and had three bounce houses, food (chicken salad sandwiches, corn dogs, chips, cookies, and hot chocolate), games, and prizes.  We had a great time!  We’re really feeling like part of the ward, and that we know most everyone.

On Halloween, we took the kids to a few houses around Jonathan and Katie’s house.  It was a big family affair, and a fun way to do it.  Chris was Batman, Naomi a fairy, Jacob was Mario, and Lily was Princess Peach.
